March 17.
No one is alert
enough to be present at
the first dawn of spring,
March 17, 1857
Whistling overhead
now lost in the horizon --
large flock of sheldrakes.
March 17, 1860
after the darkness
that moment in the dawn when
we see things truly.
March 17, 1852
Maple blossom buds
show a rusty, fusty space.
Look as if bursting.
March 17, 1855
Flying with great force
swift propellers of the air
whistling overhead.
March 17, 1860
Whistling overhead
swift propellers of the air
flying with great force.
March 17, 1860
Now here overhead
now lost in the horizon:
large flock of sheldrakes.
March 17, 1860
